Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook 
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0316 PM CST Thu Nov 21 2024

Valid 231200Z - 291200Z

Fire weather concerns remain limited through the extended period.
The upper trough over the Great Lakes/Ohio River Valley will
continue to promote widespread rain/snow chances across these
regions and into the Northeast over the next 48 hours. The
precipitation associated with this system, co*bined with seasonal
temperatures over the next several days, will limit fuel concerns
across the northern/northeastern CONUS. A breakdown of the upper
ridge over the central U.S. will transition into a more zonal flow
regime over this weekend. As this occurs, increasing
west/southwesterly mid-level flow - augmented by transient shortwave
troughs - may promote areas of dry/windy conditions in the lee of
the southern Rockies. Additionally, a dry return flow regime may
beco*e established across the southern Plains this weekend as a lee
trough deepens along the High Plains; however, recent widespread
rainfall should limit fuel status. This regime will be short-lived
as cold air intrusions overspread the Plains behind a deepening
surface low during the early to mid-week period. Recent
precipitation, cool temperatures, and weak gradient winds should
limit fire concerns across the western CONUS.
